About

Holes 18
Type Public
Par 71
Length 5608 yards
Slope 122
Rating 68.9

DeBell Golf Club in Burbank offers an 18-hole Regulation Course and a nine-hole disc golf course. The Regulation Course has a tight layout with narrow fairways and a variety of elevation changes that range from subtle to dramatic. Accuracy is the key to doing well on this golf course but it's not overly punishing. Its risk-reward holes will appeal to low and high handicappers alike. The front nine is fairly challenging but the back nine is where the golf course gets tough. Although DeBell Golf Club is short, only 5,608 yards from the back tees, the blind shots and winding doglegs make it seem much longer than it is. There isn't any water on the golf course but you'll hardly miss its presence with all the other hazards that lurk throughout.

Blustery Day

It was blustery for sure. Wind was swerling and inconsistent. Fair ways were in great shape as were the greens. Very tricky greens to read. Only one negative the bunkers, sand please. I was in several, none had sand. Renovation of the driving range is really nice.

Pretty good for your average player

The course and venue was great. A little banged up, but overall pretty good. Challenging for some since it’s a little narrow and would play it again.

Great course

Well maintained course, but challenging, I believe they put ball magnets in the trees ( not my bad shot). I had a ton of fun playing it and will when I back in the area. The staff was very friendly as well. Our groups pace of play had no issues. The groups ahead of us played at a great pace. Would 100% recommend playing but the course is challenging and unforgiving but fun. 10/10 plan to play again.

Enjoyable tree lined course.

I've always enjoyed playing here. First time I played here, many years ago, I saw Will Smith and Alfonso Ribeiro teeing off.

Leave your driver in the bag unless you know you can hit your fairway!

Generally speaking the course conditions are okay. The course is walkable, especially if you enjoy the exercise.

Sporty Course but frustrating at times

Have played this many times in the past but not much recently. Saying it requires accuracy is an understatement as every hole has hazards to swallow up errant shots. On the flip side, all holes except for # 7, #10 and # 18 are quite reachable in regulation by even relatively short hitters. This is not a course to take out the driver and fairway woods and let it rip but it really tests the short to mid irons. Greens are generally in good shape. Visually interesting course. Sometimes gets too backed up though due to the many troubles players can get into.
